Yeah, the PSP could stand having longer battery life. There are some better battery packs out but they ruin the streamlined look of it. But as long as you just put it on charger everytime you get home it ain't really a problem (except for REALLY long trips)

I like PSP as a media device; it's got a lot of use for music, videos, and movies; however, DS has quirky games, and most of all, it has ANIMAL CROSSING which is always a plus.

DSi is late to the game, but it's still a nice interesting upgrade.

DSi does look better at being portable and durable with the flap it has on it whereas the PSP is just open to harm at anytime unless you get a case for it. I agree with iBock, psp is a great media device but when it comes to games... eh.

I think I'll stick with my Old DS.

I like the new one, but it's pretty much the features of a Flash Cart, along with a camera and a Web browser (With a DS shop)

Though I like the Idea of a DS camera
(I wonder what DS GAME they got that off of [Trace Memory much?])

The other thing is, I already have 2 DS'es now.
(One is broken and untradable, but it plays perfectly, and the other is a Lite.)

I think they're just going to put GBA games on the Shop thing.
Maybe that'll give more reason to inspire a GBA emulator for DS.

Also, This DS gets rid of any Slot 2 Accessories.
(This means no GH:WT for Bob.)

And about the Download games thing...
They're probably either going to be Stuff like homebrew, or old games.
Either or, you can probably find most of them online somewhere.

And the Internet...
Didn't they make a DS Browser Game?

But I'm still thinking about it.
A camera on a DS would be pretty Sweet

===
About the PSP:
Haven't looked at it.

With the DS browser built-in, you actually SAVE money :3. But, if it doesn't support javascript... No point in its use unless you're an email addict.

Or a vizzed addict.

But yah, it's kinda pointless.

On the Vizzed addict part, I'm definitely considering DSi more now that I can post from my DS OMG DSi posting fiend :3

Whats wrong with javascript not being on it? .

I'd go DSi for the homebrew stuff I could do to it.

Benny, what do you mean "but it's pretty much the features of a Flash Cart". Only the feature that is the same is the mp3 player.. which only plays ACC anyway..

My R4DS plays MP3, OGG, and other formats.
It also does video, text, and pictures.

...Not sure what flash cart you're using.

I have an old M3 simply. Might win me an acecard 2 in a code compo.

It also does mp3, ogg, ect ect. Thats with moonshell yeah?
I use my DS more for homebrew programs/games, which wont be allowed on DSi, normaly. Just with a flash cart.

R4? *Coughobsoletecough*
The M3 now beats the R4 in EVERY WAY POSSIBLE.
Not gunna start a discussion on this, but it does because of M3 Sakura.
Note that thats just the firmware, it works on a M3 Real but it's been uberly upgraded.
It's epic now. I can explain more if needed.
Also, Slot 2 Accessories were mainly for the RAM with the Flash Carts. The DSi has a TON more RAM, thus only making Rumble Packs unusable.

And damnit it all, I CANNOT figure out what the i in DSi stands for! ARRGH!

probably it means "Developer System Interactive" as in there's way more stuff for players to do such as interacting with an online application shop, camera, etc.

M3 IS R4. Only difference is the different OS's, which you can patch anyway.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSi
Got some infos there, not much about the name except "DSi, Nintendō Dīesuai".

M3 is now the R4. Except better. Extremely. Go git the English hacked version of M3 Sakura, and I dare you to tell me it's the same as the R4. If you do, I will make it my mission to hunt you down. o;;o

No. I ment the hardware.. The only diff in the M3 and R4 (was true with m3 simply.. not 100% sure about m3 real..) was a thing in the circuit to prevent R4 OS on M3, and vice versa. They were made in the same factory!

I want to check this M3 Sakura thing down, but im egerly awaiting release of Menudo!
http://forum.palib.info/index.php?topic=5996.0
If yo uunt around on that forum, you can find a Menudo demo.
Its a PSP style menu for DS. In the later version it'll also have Xbox 360 style menus!

I like psp as a multimedia device
But for fun ds takes the cake. And my favourite game series Legend of Zelda =D are on that console so DS for me is best.

They have a Browser as a DS application for a Flash Cart. Just have to have the Slot 2 RAM/RAM-Rumble pack accessory.

Nothing new there.

Also, Sakura plays plenty of music in it's own, no Moonshell thing required.
Has really nice Video quality too.

I agree with Zeex55.
